In this vox pop, EM360Tech's Shubhangi Dua, Podcast Producer and Tech Journalist, interviews Anton Kopytov, Head of Data at CloudSmiths at Big Data LDN 2025. The main theme of the year from agentic AI, however, AI pilots' deployment at scale remains a key challenge.

“The main theme is to move the AI from isolated pilots into the production-grade scale value realisation in systems,” stated Kopytov.

He added that the revolution of AI is not to do with experimenting, but it’s to secure and govern AI systems that are effective and bring business results.

“It’s not about the AI’s accuracy but how safe, compliant, scalable and viable it is,” the Head of Data tells Dua at BDL.
